5 traditional African hairstyles that are making a come back

Fulani Braids 

Hair is parted in the middle and side, and braided in cornrows. It is then adorned with colorful beads and cowries.

The Fulani are a primarily Muslim, traditionally pastoral ethnic group in Africa that’s scattered throughout West Africa and parts of East Africa. A Fulani bride’s hair is especially colorful and deliberately adorned.
